Russell Westbrook is officially retiring from the NBA after 18 seasons. 🫡 Y'all already know them Baha Boyz are dedicating today's conversation to one of the most electric, relentless and polarizing superstars basketball has ever seen. Russ walks away as an NBA MVP, nine-time All-Star, nine-time All-NBA selection and the NBA's all-time triple-double leader with 209. From becoming the first player since Oscar Robertson to average a triple-double for an entire season, to his unforgettable years alongside Kevin Durant and James Harden in Oklahoma City, Westbrook changed what we thought was possible from the point guard position. Now comes the conversation about his legacy. Where does Russell Westbrook rank among the greatest point guards ever? Is he the greatest player to never win an NBA championship? How should his historic triple-double run be remembered? What was peak Russ really like? And when he eventually enters the Basketball Hall of Fame, where does his résumé stack up against the game's other legendary guards?
